About Ruth

1. I became a caregiver because I have dedicated my life to serving others. I used to help my grandmother with my grandfather whom suffered from Alzheimer's when I was 13 years old. From a young age I learned the importance of treating others with dignity and respect. 2. I find being a caregiver rewarding because I know I am making a difference in someone's life 3. My love of people has led me to attaining a Bachelor of Nursing in Australia. 4. I have strong work ethics NOTE: I now live in Houston Texas
